Driving to the United States Military Academy at West Point(1) 🚗

West Point is the first military academy in the United States, located in West Point, New York (on the west bank of the Hudson River), about 80 kilometers from New York City. 🎢🌟 It took a little over an hour by car, with not many vehicles on the road. The scenery along the way was particularly beautiful in late autumn. 🍂 The day we arrived, the school's museum was closed for maintenance, but there was a simpler exhibition room in the visitor center that we could visit. For the average person who isn't planning to do in-depth research, it was more than enough. 🎢🌟 "Duty, Honor, Country" is the motto of the United States Military Academy at West Point. You can see this motto everywhere on campus. 🌟 West Point is one of the oldest military academies in the United States. 🎢🌟 It is often referred to as one of the "world's four great military academies," alongside the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst in the UK, the Voroshilov Military Academy in Russia, and the École Spéciale Militaire de Saint-Cyr in France. #NewYork 🌆
